Course content

Why is Norway not a member of the EU? To what extent does Norway still participate in EU cooperation, and how does this participation work? The course provides a thorough introduction to Norway's relationship with European integration after the Second World War and up to the present day, with particular emphasis on the EEA Agreement. The term "Norway" in this context refers not only to political authorities, but also to public opinion, political parties and other interest groups. Based on rationalist and constructivist perspectives, the course examines Norway's relationship with the EEC/EC/EU over time, as well as Norway's present-day participation in European integration.
